Atom and Evergreen
There won't be much room on the rocket ship,
only two will go.
They'll be handpicked, to introduce our DNA into the next galaxy.
They'll probably be born into wealth and royalty...
The press will nickname them Atom and Evergreen.
They'll be masters in gardening and anti- gravity.
Carry the speed of light in backpacks.
Siphon new laws from black matter ponds.
When Evergreen gives birth
she'll look into the eyes of her newborn.
and name it in honor of the dying motherland.
In time everything birthed eventually burns
then turns back into the age of ice once again.
The sequence has been performed a million times in the past.
Everything is cleansed in a universal hearth,
the heart and soul of earth and the new earth
will be no different.
mankind simply speeds up the process.
